Last Week...

...we ordered some steaks from Omaha Steaks, and they came in a package with dry ice. Daddy and the girls had a blast playing with it after bath time on Monday.

...the girls snuggled together, and Toodles hung his head over the side of the top bunk to watch them. Apparently, that's his bed now. (You can see his little head at the very top.)

...Grace caught a ladybug at soccer practice on Wednesday.

...we watched West Side Story with the girls. They loved it and loved dancing to the songs.

...I saw this on Friday, and Isaac and I debated over whether it was real or not. Either way...gross.

...Isaac took the girls on a hike Saturday morning, while I soaked in a bubble bath. They had a blast exploring with Daddy.

...Gracie had a game later that day and begged coach to put her in every time she came out. She's really loving soccer, which makes me so excited to watch her skills grow each week.

...Char always wants to be by sister, even during her game.

...she caught another ladybug after the game and named it Luna. She was very upset when Daddy wouldn't let her bring it in the car.

...Char napped, while we drove home.

...she had lots of energy afterwards, so she wrestled with Daddy, while he was trying to nap.

...I made a long "honey do" list for Isaac, and he finally got started on it. We spent most of Saturday night deep cleaning different rooms and completing tasks - like hanging this shelf that I bought six months ago. Now I need to find something to put on top of it.

...we went to Hash House for breakfast Sunday, where we enjoyed the greatest banana french toast ever while Char colored.

...after breakfast, Daddy took Grace to Star Nursery and bought her a thousand ladybugs to make up for leaving Luna behind at the soccer game. He sprinkled them all over our yard, and Grace loved watching them. Charley refused to touch them and just liked to watch sister hold them.

...back inside, my little bug fell asleep on my lap. I had just been talking about how I couldn't wait to have a baby sleeping on my chest in a couple weeks. Thanks, Char.

...I secretly recorded Grace dancing to Britney Spears. She kept looking at me to see if I was recording her, so Isaac and I pretended to be looking at something else on my phone. This girl cracks me up.

...after baths on Sunday, I painted the girls nails pink with sparkles per their request.

We had a great week and are counting down the days until baby time! Almost there!!

When we were younger, Isaac always said he wanted six kids. I always said I saw myself with three girls (weird, right?). After we had Grace and Charley, we settled on the idea of having four. We talked about waiting a few years after Charley was born and then having two more, so the first two would be close and the second two would be close.
Fast forward a few years and along came Perry. We had to work for her, though. We tried for fourteen months and then had a miscarriage before getting pregnant with that little sassy pants. Since we wanted our fourth baby to be close in age to her, we started trying a few months before she turned two. We got pregnant in March only to have another miscarriage. I was pretty numb for a couple of months until it finally hit me one day. We had stopped trying and just had the feeling of "it'll happen if it's meant to".
In August, we started the keto diet, and I read that it can throw your cycle off the first couple of months. I had lo…

Perry spent the day with Grandma Sunshine, Papa Craig, and Paxton on Monday. They played at the park and checked out some horses. Perry had so much fun and now keeps telling me that she is going to Grandma's instead of school.

Grace and Char's school had a fundraiser, and Charley's class did so well that they got to have a popsicle party on Tuesday.

She had soccer practice, and Perry thought the practice was for her. She loves to play soccer with her big sisters.

The girls had superhero day, and Charley wore her Wonder Woman shirt.

We headed up to Pine Valley to go camping on Friday after work. It's easily my favorite place to camp as my dad always took me there as a kid. I have so many fun memories of skipping rocks, fishing in the creek, listening to raccoons ravage through our groceries, and making scones around the campfire. I want my girls to have the same memories, and it's also nice to get them away from their iPa…

We caught a beautiful sunrise on our way to school Monday morning. We're getting to the point where it's going to be dark when we leave the house soon.

Char had soccer practice, and the sky was all sorts of pretty colors.

We made fajitas for dinner, and nothing beats the smell of peppers and onions sizzling.

Perry was a goofball in the car while we waited for sisters to get back from school.

We drove to Springs Preserve on Saturday for a fun day with our field trip group, and Perry insisted on wearing Daddy's glasses the whole way.

We had bunless cheeseburgers and berries for lunch.

Perry napped in bed, while I watched the Sooners play some football.

We had a date night with some friends that night, and the drinks and tapas at Firefly were delish. After dinner, we headed to the Fiesta where we ended up in the bingo room. It was my first time, and I couldn't believe how fast they go. I could barely keep up with my dobber, let al…
